Tools

| Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | validate_input | Validate and sanitize incoming requests through all guardrail checks | | filter_output | Filter and redact sensitive data (PII, secrets, credentials) from responses | | check_policy | Evaluate a request against security policies (RBAC, resource access, quotas) | | get_audit_logs | Query the audit log with filtering by type, user, time range | | get_stats | Get engine statistics including active users, block rate, request counts | | update_config | Update guardrail configuration at runtime |

Security Features

  • Prompt Injection Detection -- 12 regex patterns for jailbreak, DAN mode, system prompt override
  • PII Detection and Redaction -- SSN, credit card, email, phone, IP, API keys, AWS keys, JWT, passwords, private keys, connection strings
  • Malicious Code Blocking -- eval, exec, subprocess, child_process, shell injection
  • Policy Engine -- Block sensitive paths, dangerous tools, unauthenticated destructive ops, URL allowlist, maintenance windows
  • Rate Limiting -- Per-user sliding window (configurable requests/minute)
  • Audit Logging -- Timestamped events with metrics, log rotation, external handler support
